World’s Oldest Statue to go on Show in Rome
“Ancient artworks from Jordan – some of them never before seen outside Petra and Amman - are going on display today at Rome’s Quirinal Palace. The star attraction at the exhibition is a statue found at the site of Ayn Ghazal near Amman dating from 7500 BC, one of the oldest surviving statues of its kind and size.”
